Gemini Springs Birding
Details
This local park features a couple miles of hiking trails through wooded areas and alongside springs. Many migrant birds are likely to use this as a stopover area so we should have a good chance for a variety of species!
Time: At least two hours. Longer if birds are showing well.
Weather: Unless there are severe storms, this will occur rain or shine!
Skill Level and Pace: Any welcome. Suitable for beginners. Will be at a casual/leisurely pace.
Potential Non-Avian Wildlife: Alligators, manatees, deer, fish, turtles, and snakes.
Accessibility: Somes areas of paved trails while others are well-maintained and unpaved. Mostly level terrain. NO DOGS PLEASE!
Facilities: Restrooms on site.
What to bring: Sunscreen, bug spray, comfortable boots (may be muddy in some areas), hat if desired.
Dress for the weather and bring your own water.
Binoculars recommended. I have one extra pair for use during the trip - first come, first served. Feel free to bring camera!
